Shame/Less




Shame/Lessbrings together seven contemporary artists probing the issues of shame and shamelessness in various aspects: gluttony, lust, vanity, weakness. Artists have long had an intimate knowledge of shame. By vocation, they are familiar with economic insecurity, lack of prestige, self-doubt, and isolation. Can the shameless display of private fears, personal failings, and vulnerability have the effect of making a viewer feel shame less? These artists are drawing a wedge between shame and less in an attempt to find out.
